The R+ Designer Rankings (designerrankings.com) displays a global ranking of the world’s best designers across all industries and all countries. A’ Design Award winners are automatically included in the ranking (although only the top 5000 are displayed on the website). The ranking is based on the number of awards won, and a designer’s position in the R+ Designer Rankings is defined first by the number of Platinum Design Award wins, then by the number of Gold, Silver, Bronze and Iron awards they have received.
